Low-Dispersive Coplanar Waveguides and Thin-Film Microstrip Lines for Sub-mm Wave Monolithic Integration
Abstract
Planar sub-millimeterwave transmission-line structures suitable for monolithic integration are discussed. The results show that both miniaturized coplanar waveguides and appropriate thin-film microstrip configurations provide low-dispersive propagation properties up to 1 THz. The paper discusses radiation and dispersion effects as well as basic rules how CPWs should be designed in order to reach the desired sub-mm wave performance.
